Preparing for installation
To install the eMC2 charging station, a range of prerequisites regarding the site and
power connections must be met in order to guarantee safe operation.
Requirements for the installation site
The eMC2 charging pole was developed for indoor and outdoor applications. To ensure
a proper charging process, you as operator must comply with the following instruc-
tions regarding site and installation.
• Consider all local regulations for electrical installations, fire protection and accident
prevention.
• All rules for low voltage installations according to IEC 60364-1 and IEC 60364-5-52
apply.
• The installation surface must have sufficient strength to withstand the mechanical
stresses.
• It is recommended not to install the eMC2 directly on a blacktop or concrete floor,
but to use a concrete foundation of suitable specifications (see EMC9999 ).
• A sufficiently dimensioned cable for the power supply must be planned for the
installation site. The power supply must be positioned in the ground in relation to
the tube opening in the concrete foundation. In the vicinity of the foundation, the
power supply must, if necessary, be protected against mechanical impact (using a
suitable hose or tube).
• The ground at the installation site must allow the drainage of liquids that may have
entered the plinth.
• Protection against mechanical impact should include site-specific guards to pre-
vent potential collisions of electric vehicles with the charging pole.
• An electric vehicle parking spot must be planned for on both sides of the charging
pole. The minimum distance between vehicle and charging pole should be no less
than 50 cm and no more than 150 cm.
• Select an installation site for the charging pole that is easily accessible to emer-
gency services vehicles.
• The eMC2 charging pole should not be installed in areas with high pedestrian or
vehicle through-traffic. Please make sure especially that the charging cables are
clearly visible and that passers-by or pedestrian pathways are not obstructed by
the cables.
• In general, the eMC2 is engineered for operation in high ambient temperatures.
However, it must be ensured that the maximum operating temperature is not ex-
ceeded through external influences such as direct sunlight or similar. If required,
make contact with your local service partner and make an appointment for advice.
